University police are searching for a man who allegedly sexually battered a UCLA student Monday morning.

The student was walking on Gayley Avenue at 12:58 a.m. when she was sexually battered, according to a UCPD alert. She confronted the man and recorded him on her cellphone, but he grabbed her phone. The man then returned the phone to her before entering a gray Nissan sedan with dark tinted windows and drove southbound on Gayley Avenue, according to the alert.

UCPD described the man as black, in his early 20s and 6 feet tall. He was last seen wearing black sweatpants, athletic shoes and a black sweater with “San Francisco” written on it, according to the alert.

UCPD advises students to report any suspicious activities to the police and to avoid walking home alone at night.

The case is still under investigation. Anyone with information about this case can call UCPD at 310-825-1491.

Poll

The Associated Students UCLA opened two popular restaurants, Veggie Grill and Blaze Pizza, this year. ASUCLA said in fall 2017 that it expected to lose more than $1 million for the 2017-2018 year. What do you think about these restaurant openings in light of ASUCLA’s financial situation?
Introducing desired restaurants, such as Veggie Grill and Blaza Pizza, will bolster ASUCLA’s business.
ASUCLA needs to improve other departments, such as its merchandise and textbook stores, in addition to opening new restaurants.
ASUCLA is unlikely to improve its financial situation despite how much it revamps its services.
I have feelings about this issue that are not expressed in the options above.
